Cyrus!
The boss of Team Galactic, a man who sought to destroy the world and reshape it!
"Boss, is there really the power of Arceus here?"
Mars, with her fiery red short hair, hesitated for a moment before speaking to Cyrus.
"We don't even know if that person's information is accurate. And if this is just a trap…"
Mars was hesitant. The information about the Jewel of Life had been sent to Cyrus by a mysterious person just yesterday afternoon.
The Michina Ruins were said to hide the five plates of Arceus!
Upon receiving this information, Cyrus had immediately gathered the Team Galactic executives and headed to Michina.
"The world originated from Mt. Coronet. At Mt. Coronet, Arceus created Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina, stabilizing time, space, and the reverse world."
"If we want to create a perfect world, we must rely on Dialga and Palkia. But Mars, this path is far too long."
Cyrus spoke calmly, his tone devoid of emotion, his expression as cold as a machine.
And indeed, that was the case. Cyrus believed that the heart was a fragile thing, something humans didn't need at all.
So he discarded the so-called heart and emotions, becoming a man as cold and calculating as a machine.
"The Plates of Arceus can help us more effectively. No matter who that person is, as long as the information they provided is accurate, there's no need to worry about their motives."
"And…"
Cyrus's voice remained calm. He didn't know how that person had obtained his contact information, but he didn't care.
As long as the information about the Jewel of Life was true, that was enough!
As for being used?
Cyrus was no pushover. If someone wanted to use him, they'd have to see if they had the ability to do so.
"Understood, Boss."
Mars fell silent, then finally nodded respectfully.
Without another word, Mars, along with the other executives, led the Team Galactic members into the ancient temple.
According to the information, the Jewel of Life was in the basement of the ancient temple, and to access it, they needed to find the two guardians.
Cyrus stood with his hands clasped behind his back, his deep eyes emotionless as he gazed at the ancient temple.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Loud explosions echoed from within the ancient temple, clearly indicating a battle was taking place.
But soon, the sounds of battle ceased.
Mars and the others emerged from the temple, with Team Galactic members dragging a young man and woman behind them.
"Team Galactic! How dare you attack the Michina Ruins! Aren't you afraid of the League's pursuit?"
Pushed to the ground by the Team Galactic members, Kevin struggled to lift his head, his eyes landing on Cyrus as he spoke through gritted teeth.
He never expected Team Galactic to be so brazen.
Michina wasn't a large city, but it was a town with a rich historical heritage.
Team Galactic had the audacity to openly invade the Michina Ruins. The Sinnoh League would never stand by and would undoubtedly increase their efforts to hunt down Team Galactic.
And why would Team Galactic invade the ruins?
"Ugh…"
Sheena groaned, clutching her knee, her delicate face twisted in pain. She had been pushed to the ground, and her knee was scraped.
She and Kevin were just ordinary Trainers. Outnumbered, they stood no chance against the Team Galactic members.
"The girl who inherited the Transcend Power."
Cyrus remained completely unfazed by Kevin's angry words, his gaze fixed on Sheena.
The League?
Once he created a new world, the Pokémon League would cease to exist!
"Why are you attacking the ruins?" Sheena bit her lip, her expression dark.
This was a conflict between humans. Although she had the ability to communicate with Dialga, even if she asked for its help, Dialga would not intervene.
Legends never interfered in the history and progress of humanity.
After all, she wasn't Dialga's Trainer. It was only through the Transcend Power that she could communicate with it.
"The Jewel of Life of Arceus. Hand over the Jewel of Life you're guarding."
Cyrus stared intently at Sheena's face, his voice low and commanding.
Hearing this, Sheena and Kevin's expressions changed dramatically. How could this be?
How did Team Galactic know about the Jewel of Life?
"So, where is the Jewel of Life?"
Seeing their reactions, not just Cyrus, but Mars and the others instantly realized the information was true.
Mars impatiently grabbed Sheena by the collar, urging her to speak.
"The Jewel of Life… I can't give it to you. It's related to the safety of the world."
Sheena's face twisted in pain as Mars roughly pulled her collar, making it hard for her to breathe.
Even so, Sheena refused to hand over the Jewel of Life. The consequences were far too severe.
"Let go of Sheena! Cough…"
Seeing this, Kevin's eyes turned red. He struggled to his feet and charged at Mars.
But a Purugly swiped its paw, sending Kevin crashing to the ground. A mere human was no match for a Pokémon.
"Hand over the Jewel of Life, will you?"
Cyrus frowned, signaling Mars to release Sheena. He slowly walked up to Sheena, looking down at her pale face as he spoke calmly.
Sheena glanced at Kevin, who was curled up in pain, tears welling in her eyes. Why was this happening?
Sheena bit her lower lip, refusing to answer. Even her attempts to communicate with Dialga had gone unanswered, deepening her sorrow.
"I don't know what you're holding onto, but it's futile. No one is coming to save you."
"I don't want to waste any more time. Hand over the Jewel of Life, and we'll leave immediately."
"But if you still refuse…"
Cyrus's cold eyes glinted with a frosty light as he raised his hand and pointed at Kevin.
"I'll throw him off the mountain."
The cruel words struck Sheena like a blow, her pupils shrinking to pinpricks.
And at that moment…
Ryuu Shiro and the others were slowly making their way up the mountain.
"I wonder how Cyrus is doing?"
Ryuu Shiro's lips curled into a slight smile. He had sent the information about the Jewel of Life to Cyrus yesterday. Given Cyrus's fanatical idealism, he surely wouldn't disappoint.
